I had a wedding in M'Scala this weekend, and the bride's parents had this interesting painting in their living room. The bride's brother Stef (who is also a great friend of mine) exclaimed...."Oh just a casual beheading painting in the living room!'. This painting however is important to the Maltese. It is a remake of the beheading of Saint John by Caravaggio, which he painted whilst he was imprisoned by the Pope.

So typically Maltese! Add religion to interiors just as much Indians add curry to anything...

Meanwhile below you can find the decorations in the groom's mother's bedroom. Typically religious like most Maltese bedrooms.
